Now, standing in the downpour on this Texas road, Luke, an off-duty cop, has a decision to make--and he has to make it fast. No one else is around. No witnesses. And he can't find a body. Wanting to believe he's being paranoid, that he's just seeing things, Luke panics and leaves, deciding not to report the incident but rather to secretly investigate it. He can't put more stress on Carrie, who's already haunted by the unsolved attack and murder of two teenage girls that happened years ago in Clear River, a horrific crime in which she was the sole survivor. The killer has not been found, but Carrie and Luke's anguished search for answers will slowly reveal the horrific truth.

The Christmas brides of Twilight / by Wilde, Lori,author.;
She was the one who got away ... Noelle Curry has returned to Twilight to plan the most spectacular double wedding the town has ever seen--and do it on national television. But the woman known as "The Wedding Whisperer" is knocked speechless when she notices her teenage crush, Gil Thomas, is about to plunge into icy cold water wearing nothing more than a pair of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer swim trunks. He is the sexiest guy participating in the annual polar bear plunge and seeing him pushes all thoughts of white lace and rose blossoms right out of her mind. He was the man who decided to stay ... Single dad Gil doesn't regret giving up his dreams of big-city singing stardom for small-town life. But seeing Noelle--who's blossomed from the once-gawky teenager to West Coast beauty--has him thinking of days--and nights--a whole lot hotter than his plunge in the lake. And even though he knows she'll be heading out as soon as her work is finished, he can't help hoping the magic of Christmas in Twilight will get her to change her mind and stay in town--and by his side--forever.

Kennedy's avenger : assassination, conspiracy, and the forgotten trial of Jack Ruby / by Abrams, Dan,1966-author.; Fisher, David,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.No crime in history had more eyewitnesses. On November 24, 1963, two days after the killing of President Kennedy, a troubled nightclub owner named Jack Ruby quietly slipped into the Dallas police station and assassinated the assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald. Millions of Americans witnessed the killing on live television, and yet the event would lead to questions for years to come. It also would help to spark the conspiracy theories that have continued to resonate today. Under the long shadow cast by the assassination of America's beloved president, few would remember the bizarre trial that followed three months later in Dallas, Texas. How exactly does one defend a man who was seen pulling the trigger in front of millions? And, more important, how did Jack Ruby, who fired point-blank into Oswald live on television, die an innocent man?
